1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Archaea have recombination proteins similar to those of eukaryote, but many have not been characterized. Here, the characterization of a Rad55 homologue from Sulfolobus tokodaii (stRad55A) was reported. StRad55A protein preferred binding to ssDNA and had ssDNA-dependent ATPase activity. In addition, UV light could induce the expression of this protein, which was different from RadB, a RadA paralog found in euryarchaeota. Most importantly, stRad55A could release the suppression of excessive stSSB (single strand DNA binding protein from S. tokodaii) on the strand exchange catalyzed by stRadA (RadA homologue from S. tokodaii), by interacting directly with both stRadA and stSSB. StRad55A may function as a mediator to accelerate the displacement of stSSB by stRadA.
